My family reunion was this past week and I really had a lot of fun. My cousins and uncles and aunts and all sorts of different people came. One the people I guess would have been my cousin, his name was Tim. I really enjoyed talking to him and I thought that he was really nice. He's sort of the first person to ever take me seriously and really talk to me about computers. He works for Microsoft on Smartphones and PDA's, writing code for the software. He was really nice and forthcoming and really gave me a plethora of information about getting hired for Microsoft and how he got started writing code in Basic when he was like 12 years old. I really wish I could have spent more time talking to him and getting information from him. He was a really nice guy. My aunt Jenny came in from France with her daughter Laura and her French boyfriend Julien. He was really nice and interesting to talk to about France and about his home. I only vaguely remember my aunt Jenny from when I was like 5 years old and I have never seen her since. It was also really cool seeing my cousin Laura. She was super nice. OH MY GOD!!! I learned for the first time in my life, after being so interested in computers, that my uncle, Lee Milligan, is the President of Novalogic!!! I was so excited to talk to him I just couldn't believe it. So we talked about computer games and what type of computer I should get in order to play some of the games nowadays. It was comforting to know that I didn't actually need the top-of-the-line computers. Yes, very comforting indeed. So that was nice. Then there were my cousins Mercedes and Lulu. I didn't really get to talk to them as much as I wanted, partly because they didn't really seem interested in talking to me so, whatever. Then my other cousins, Phil, Jack, and Lily, well they were really fun to hang out with. We played games and just sort of talked and hung out. Yeah, that was pretty fun. So I also met Aaron and Phoenix Milligan. They were really nice too and Aaron also writes software but for medical billing programs and things like that. So yeah... And then there was my aunt Betsy and she was really cool. We really didn't get to talk that much either, but she was really busy so, that's ok but I'm gonna keep in touch with her by e-mail. It was also really nice to see my aunt Julie. She is a very joyful woman. She was very nice to talk to. Well I believe that's it. Did I mention how much fun I had and how nice it was to talk to someone as smart and nice as Tim?
